Use buffer time on a service

Add prep or cleanup time before or after each booking so slots stay realistic.

Updated 9 Nov 2026 · 1 min read

  1. Open a service to edit.
  2. Turn on Buffer time.
  3. Choose minutes before and/or after each booking (5–120).
  4. Save.

Those minutes stay blocked so the next customer cannot book into your prep or cleanup time.
